The solar system is compressed asymmetry between directions

Data sent by Voyager 2 spacecraft dismissed the long-held notion that the solar system has a symmetrical arc between the directions.

The methods of the solar system are not a perfect arc, they are compressed as a distorted ball , floating in the space between planets and there is no symmetrical arc between the peripheral periphery as conceived. long time of man. This finding was published by scientists in a series of articles published in the July 3, 2008 Natural Journal, based on data sent from Voyager 2.

Voyager 2 begins to enter the buffer zone between the sphere space around the sun (heliosphere) and the interstellar static space (also known as the " end of collision " area, " termination shock "). The scientists said Voyager 2 flew across the sun's edge, closer than expected. This implies that heliosphere is located in the region under pressure to push inside, closer to the sun, due to the impact of magnetic fields between the planets.

Two Voyager ships were launched into space in 1977 to survey Jupiter and Saturn. Voyager 1's flight path is directed towards Saturn and away from the zodiac line, the planar plane of the planets in our solar system. Voyager 2 continues this journey, allowing two ships to have more opportunities to interact with more distant planets: Uranus and Neptune. Voyager 1 and 2 artificial ships have taken the longest journey ever - Voyager 1 will go farther than Voyager 2.

Voyager 2, along with his sister, Voyager 1 is on a mission to explore the unknown borders to keep the Solar System and interstellar space.

The figure depicts Voyager 2 at the outer limit of the heliosphere region - the strong magnetic field surrounding the solar system formed by solar wind storms. According to recent data published in a series of articles published in the Journal of Nature (July 3, 2008), scientists observed that the magnetic field was not spherical but pressed into it. southern hemisphere.
